As commenter

My initial thought in reading this was, what was your claim to this story? On Twitter, other individuals were responding to you, helping develop the story while they also consumed it. So, in some ways, it was already something shared and co-created. Obvio ...

As someone who invests in digital publications, it is great to hear that institutions are beginning to count digital work and digital publishing towards work for tenure. Looking at a few CVs today, as I work on my own, I am, still, very much aware that th ...

While I have thought a great deal about teaching online and teaching with technology, I have not thought about it from this feminist perspective. I do think of classrooms as closed, safe spaces, especially as a grad student who has taught her fair share o ...
